Try uninstalling HTC Home you have now and install this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=406418
Believe me I tried a lot of different versions and this runs smoothly and you can change your wheather location!
Hope this helps
I have stock ROM - 6.5
Device appears to never be able to get "my location".
It always prints "My location" under the clock on home screen, that's all.
On HTC Android of my friend it writes there actual city name where we are.
I tried to play and enabled/disabled everything on location settings page (this page looks very differently on Android) - no luck.
How to get it working ?
Go to World clock (clik on time)
Add city (Yours)
And select it.
Have you tried to update through wifi-connection?
It shows even smallest municipality outside any city.
Even though it´s not in the list.
I had this issue too. The solution is flashing a newer radio.
I had this problem whilst being at home, at work it finds my location fine and updates the weather.
I believe this problem is down to the fact that if you go to the weather tab, and add location... If your location is not in there, it can not find the weather for it!
the same here! they have added just 2 cities in slovakia. a little bit stupid. accuweather have the forecast for us, but... thats a bit strange.

It is not "My Location". It is answer to "how to show weather in my city".
I didn't see an explanation how "My Location" is supposed to work, but I assume it should automatically display weather (on Home screen over the clock, and on weather tab) according to actual location of the phone.

For me it sometimes work, sometimes doesn't. I occasionally get some small cities shown as my location - with forecast, and they aren't listed in normal "locations" list.
It does seem to have some relation to WiFi connection, although I can't pinpoint the exact scenario. Today, for instance, I got small city located around 2 km along the route to the work as my location, and I don't think phone got wifi ever once (I drove on highways, and shops/gas stations etc are too far away).
I have searched but could not find an answer to my exact problem. I have the stock Spring 6.5 ROM and the weather information on my home screen will not update unless I goto the weather tab in which case it updates there and then updates the home screen. I have it set to update every 15min but I will lock the screen then turn it on 3 hours later and the weather info will still be the same. Any ideas??
same here bro, must be a bug...gotta go to the weather tab and hit update now in order for the home screen to reflect the correct weather info
Anyone has the solution?
I developed the same problem four days ago. Neither my location nor the local forecast will update, even if I do it manually. GPS works for Google Maps and other programs, and I can update weather for the major cities but not my location ... it just stuck. If it makes any difference, I'm running a stock WM6.5 with Cookie's HomeTab, but the weather was working just fine under those conditions for a long time.
did u select update when romaing as well?

For me, it doesn't matter whether or not I select "roaming": no update. I have tried every combination of weather and GPS settings I can think of, short of a registry edit.

it's not you or your phone...it's something with htc and the sense my location software. it went out on my t-mo hd2 for 4 weeks, then started working again. i went to the tmo store and the demo in the store was doing the same thing. if you manually enter your location, i bet the correct forcast comes up . you're just gonna have to wait it out .

You're right. Just now, the correct location and current weather update magically reappeared after nearly a week.

If it's the international version, you should be on those forums http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1533
Anyway...for your location issue, make sure you're allowing the phone to get your location System -> Location Services -> Google's location service

Hello, In my case where GPS stopped working after I installed CleanRom. If your GPS is working you don't need to read this thread. If you want to help out, please welcome. After tried many tricks and trades in the book, I found one solution that may resolved this issue, It works for me but may not work for you, just give it a try and report back. Here is the issue: when "GPS satellites" option is checked in Settings->Location Services and then you try to open maps and tab on the gps icon on the most top, it's trying to locate your location using GPS satellites. You also going to see the GPS icon in the notification, but it's not blinking (meaning it's not working). Here is what I did to force it to work:
1. Make sure your wifi is working.(you have internet connectivity)
2. In Settings->Location Services-> put a check to "Google's location service" (the top option), but leave the other two options UNCHECKED. Tab "agree" button when prompted for.
3. Open "Maps" app and tab on the GPS icon on the top (next to the microphone icon). At this time you should able to have a lock on your location. Try to find any addresses to verify it's can locate them.
4. Now go back to Location Services and put a check to "GPS satellite", now you should have both top options checked, and the last bottom option, which is "Location & Google search is UNCHECKED)
5. Go back to your Maps app and hit the GPS icon located on top next to the microphone icon again, now take a look at the gps icon in the notification bar (all way at the bottom), you should see it's blinking.(meaning the GPS is now working)
6. Go back to Location Services and uncheck the "Google's location service", so now should only have the "GPS satellites" checked (the middle option).
7. Go back to Maps and hit the GPS icon you should see the GPS icon in the notification is blinking and working.
Now your GPS should be working as normal. You can reboot, turn it off, turn it back on anyway you like. Please report back if it indeeds fixed your issue. Good luck.
-------------
Also try hard reset (push the reset button or do a cold boot).
Thanks for the detailed walkthrough.

where can i get that mod gps file?
You can install the gps file using pimp my rom. Just flash pimp my rom zip file using recovery and select gps file for your country.
Just wondering when you select Google option, is the gps find your location?

Having a similar problem and using search brought me here.
I do not think that my GPS not functioning is a ROM issue, but I am wondering :
-I purchased the device in Germany and it was working well there
-I brought it to Russia and it is not showing any GPS fix since
-I unlocked bootloader and rooted today, still no GPS difference
Is a 'German' device not able to find a lock 'abroad' ?
I did give it more than 30 minutes outside to try, my HTC oneX+ was able to spot 18 sat's being inside the house

Ruud

I received the device and did an OTA upgrade to 10.4.4.23 which was WW.
The GPS receipt was OK at that moment, it showed my whereabouts at times I received my internet through a phone (thethering).
I now did change to : CleanROM 3.1 Inheritance
But the 'no GPS fix' problem occurred right after I arrived in Russia, not connecting with my flashing of a new ROM.
It was showing the weather for a German town for days, even though I was walking outside looking for GPS receipt for a long time.

Try go into settings->apps and clear "data" for Google framework service" and maps then reboot, see if that help?

Clear data was done for 'Google Services Framework', 'GPS Status', 'Maps' & '2GIS'. After that a short press on the power button and 'reboot' was chosen.
A quick look in GPS Status shows no satellite at all.

When you open maps and tap on the "gps" icon on the top, did you see the "gps" icon in your dock lid up (not hollow)?

If I open maps, it is first asking for permissions, that because I was playing around with that Yesterday based on the recommendations here. I gave these (locations are all tapped on now)
After that I see maps with a accuracy of 20m correctly showing where I am but I am afraid that is because of WiFi connection, not GPS.
I do not know which is the GPS symbol, the first one changes 2D to 3D,the rest is also not showing any reaction connected with GPS. The GPS icon is blinking, also GPS Status icon is showing that it is looking for a connection.

Ruud

OK, atleast everything is working excepted for locking onto any Sat. Have you try this sequence yet?
1. Make sure your wifi is working.(you have internet connectivity)
2. In Settings->Location Services-> put a check to "Google's location service" (the top option), but leave the other two options UNCHECKED. Tab "agree" button when prompted for.
3. Open "Maps" app and tab on the GPS icon on the top (next to the microphone icon). At this time you should able to have a lock on your location. Try to find any addresses to verify it's can locate them.

Yes, I have done so, or at least tried to do so. As I said, my MAPS do not show an icon for GPS, nor do I see a microphone icon.
I have nevertheless walked through the sequence to see if it helps. But I see only a blinking which says "Searching for GPS".

That is highly appreciated.
Do I understand it like this :
-Power + Vol-Down
-Enter RCK (the TWRP menu)
-Choose install
-Choose the file You send me as the one to be installed
Should any wipes be done before or after this ?
